一山還比一山高
不要在達到一些小成功時便滿足的停下來，
要有一點平靜的心緒，堅定不變的意志，一些與眾不同的眼界，和正規的思考與閱讀。
還有更高的境界去攀登，更高的區域去提升。
繼續你靈性的練習，
一些修行者期盼得到效果，經過一段時間的練習，若無法迅速獲得，便放棄了靈修。
他們期望經由短時間的修習得到許多完美的結果，當感到無法在短時間獲得時便徹底放棄，回到舊有的物質世界。
從人類(小我)到宇宙(大我)覺知意識的提升，有很多的層次範疇，
很多的面紗要撕開來，一些低層的點面要展開來看，在最後目標到達之前，很多的障礙必須要去跨越。
當穩固在最高的三摩地境界，你便達到了最後的目標，你便不再去視，聽，嗅，感覺。你便不會再有肉體的感覺。
這時你便達到了宇宙的覺知。什麼都不存在，唯有大我之身。這是一種偉大的經驗。你將感受到敬畏及驚奇，同時將擁有無上的智識。
過去和未來都融入永恆的現在。
你已超越時間和空間了。
Dada釋義:
Sri Swami Sivananda在靈修日誌中提到高階靈修，抵達三摩地境界的闡釋。
許多的修習者修習靈性的修持是為了”快速”的達到目的，這樣的心態是為”慾望”所驅使，
殊不知”慾望”乃痛苦的根源。
心靈的修持是為了更深的內心覺知，更深的內心覺知是為了身心內在的圓滿和快樂，慾望是物質的產物；而專注在自身的改進和學習是為了和平的生命境界，兩者截然不同。

Summits Beyond Summits
Sri Swami Sivananda
Never rest contented with a little achievement or success in the path, with a little serenity of mind, a little one-pointedness of mind, some vision of angels or Siddhis, a little faculty of thought reading. There are still higher summits to ascend, higher regions to climb. Continue the spiritual practice. Some aspirants leave Sadhana after some time. They expect great fruits quickly. They expect many Siddhis within a short time. When they do not get some, they give up the Sadhana. There are several ranges of consciousness between the ordinary human consciousness and the supra consciousness of Brahman. Different veils have to be torn down on the way; many lower centres have to be opened up; many hurdles have to be crossed over before the final goal is reached. When you are established in the highest Nirvikalpa Samadhi, when you have reached the final goal, you have nothing to see, nothing to hear, nothing to smell, nothing to feel. You have no body-consciousness. You have full Brahmic Consciousness. There is nothing but the Self. It is a grand experience; you will be struck with awe and wonder. You have simultaneous knowledge now. Past and future are blended into the eternal present. Everything is “now”. Everything is “here”. You have gone beyond time and space.
